The accessor for the PSGI env is now on Catalyst::Request + as per applications which were using Catalyst::Engine::PSGI + + Catalyst::Engine::PSGI is now considered fully deprecated. + + - The private _dump method in Catalyst::Log is now deprecated. The dumper is + not pluggable and which dumper to use should be a user choice. Using + an imported Dump() or Dumper() function is less typing than $c->log->_dump + and as this method is unused anywhere else in Catalyst, it has been scheduled + for removal as a cleanup. Calling this method will now emit a stack trace + on first call (but not on subsequent calls). + + Back compatibility fixes: + - Applications still using Catalyst::Engine::PSGI as they rely on + $c->request->env - this is now the provided (and recommended) way of + accessing the raw PSGI environment. + + Tests: + - Spurious warnings have been removed from the test suite + + Documentation: + - Fix the display of PROJECT FOUNDER and CONTRIBUTORS sections in the + documentation. These were erroneously being emitted when the Pod + was converted to HTML for search.cpan.org + + - Fix documentation for the build_psgi_app app method.
